From a wish to the bookshelf
Savvy Kids began one night when Daniela, a mom and CEO, sat by her son’s bookshelf and wished for stories that reflected today’s childhood — one full of screens, curiosity, and change.
That wish became The Fox Who Forgot to Look Up — and from there, a bigger dream took shape:
To build a publishing home for books that help children grow emotionally intelligent, curious, and kind — while navigating a world that’s evolving faster than ever.
The Heart Behind the Story
Daniela d’Hotman de Villiers is the Founder of Savvy Kids and CEO of Savvy Social, one of South Africa’s leading digital agencies.
She’s a storyteller, mother, and advocate for raising emotionally intelligent kids in a world of technology and AI.
Through Savvy Kids, Daniela hopes to inspire more meaningful conversations — one bedtime story at a time.
